The whole family traveled through ancient times to start a new business

Su Ankang, who was pressed on the stool, immediately remembered and said as he stood up, "Third brother, it's not me, it's for your second sister-in-law to see."

Before he could get up, Su An Dong pushed him back: "Second brother, mother said that you two have to watch it, sit down."

Su Ankang, who was pushed back, thought: This third brother looks like a weak scholar, but he is actually quite strong. When Su Ankang heard that it was his mother who said that, he sat on the stool obediently, even though he was reluctant.

The old doctor stretched out his hand to feel the patient's pulse: "Yes, you have to check it. Having a child is a matter for two people." The old doctor had sharp eyes and he knew what he needed to see at a glance.

Su Ankang's face turned red after hearing the old doctor's words, and he sat there awkwardly.

After a moment, the old doctor said, "It's nothing, just a little weak. Just eat something good to replenish yourself. No need to take medicine."

Su Ankang heaved a sigh of relief after hearing the old doctor's answer. He was just afraid that the doctor would say something bad.

When it was Li Hongmei's turn to sit on the stool, her uneasiness was palpable.

The old doctor examined her carefully for a while before finally speaking: "The uterus is cold, so it's difficult to get pregnant."

After saying this, Li Hongmei's face turned pale instantly. Su Ankang also had a sad look on his face.

Originally, Su An Dong, a brother-in-law, was not in a position to intervene in such matters, let alone to listen to them. However, Su An Dong was really worried about these two people who had rarely been out of the house, so he asked Su An Yuan to leave and stood aside with a thick face.

After hearing what the old doctor said, Su An Dong silently rolled his eyes in his heart. What's wrong with him? He always speaks halfway and likes to bluff. Helplessly, he still had to smile and said, "It's not easy to get pregnant, but it doesn't mean you can't get pregnant, right? Can you see if we can still get pregnant after some conditioning?"

The old doctor stroked his beard and said, "It's not that you can't have a baby, it's just that it's not easy. If you take good care of yourself, there's still hope. It also depends on how the final care goes. I'll prescribe you a month's worth of medicine, you take it first, come with your brother-in-law next month, and I'll check your pulse again."

After hearing what the old doctor said, Su Ankang and his wife finally breathed a sigh of relief. Li Hongmei asked about the price of the medicine: "Then, doctor, how much will my medicine cost this month?"

"It costs three taels of silver a month."

Hearing that three taels of silver were needed a month, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Just now, Su Anyuan needed 30 taels of silver for medicine. If he needed another 10 taels, the silver he brought would not be enough. He left 10 taels of silver for the children to buy sugar and salt, and Su Andong had less than 40 taels left.

In fact, three taels of silver is already a lot for farmers, and it is the annual expenditure of many farmers. But with the 30 taels of silver just now, people are very accepting of three taels of silver.

The old doctor told Li Hongmei in detail about some of the things she should pay attention to in her daily life. After that, he said to Li Hongmei: "You go out first!

Su Ankang turned around and wanted to go out with Li Hongmei, but the old doctor called him back: "Come back."

The old doctor took Su Ankang and told him some tips on how to get pregnant easily. Su Andong was afraid that his second brother would be embarrassed, so he wisely avoided him.

Su Ankang's face turned red after hearing this. The old doctor hit Su Ankang on the forehead and said, "I'm not embarrassed, but you are. Listen carefully, don't regret it when you don't have a child."

When Su Ankang heard this, he felt that the doctor was right. When it came to giving birth, one could completely sacrifice one's face, so he listened carefully.

After Su Ankang came out with a red face, the group took the prescription to get the medicine. They also got some of the medicine needed for the medicinal diet.

After getting the medicine, the waiter said, "You should pay thirty-three taels and two qian for the medicine. Doctor Sun just told me that we won't charge you for the consultation this time, and we'll give you a lower price for the medicine. The total is thirty-one taels."

Everyone was very happy when they heard this. This saved more than two taels of silver, which was really a lot. It seemed that this old doctor was a hard-mouthed but soft-hearted person.

Su An Dong clasped his fists and thanked: "Thank you, little brother. Please also express our gratitude to Doctor Sun on our behalf. Doctor Sun still has patients inside, so I won't go in to thank him in person."

The young man agreed and everyone left the clinic.

After seeing the patient, everyone felt relieved. Su An Dong said lightly, "Let's go to the embroidery room."

When Su Anton went out in the morning, she brought her sister-in-law's embroidery work with her.

We arrived at a shop called Ruyifang, which was a very big shop.

Su Ankang and Su Anyuan wanted to stay outside the door: "We don't understand either, so we won't go in and wait for you outside."

"Since we are here, let's go in and take a look. Second sister-in-law, you know more about this than I do, go in and help me with the advice."

Li Hongmei wanted to go in. She brought some of her embroidery this time. Although it was not as good as Zhao Yun's, it could still be sold for a few copper coins. She replied, "Okay, let's go in and take a look." Then she pulled Su Ankang in.

Su An Dong found the clerk and asked, "Brother, how do we charge for embroidery work in our shop? What are the prices?"

Seeing that he was being polite, the clerk was happy to answer and pointed to a counter and said, "That's where we specialize in embroidery. Go there."

Several people walked to the counter, where a woman in her thirties stood. Apparently, the woman had seen him questioning the clerk just now. She said directly, "I need to see the embroidery before I can set the price. It depends on the quality of the embroidery."

Su An Dong took out all of his sister-in-law's embroidery and showed them to the woman. The woman was very satisfied and said, "This is good quality. A purse is 15 wen and a handkerchief is 12 wen. In fact, your embroidery and pattern are very good, but the materials of the purse and handkerchief are not good. If you use good materials, your purse can double in value."

Su Anton had asked his sister-in-law about the price in advance, and the price was fair. This price was also because he paid for the fabric and embroidery thread, otherwise it would be lower. Su Anton felt sorry for his sister-in-law's embroidery, and felt that such a good skill was wasted.

"Then how much do these cost in total? I also need to buy some embroidery thread."

"There are 15 purses and 10 handkerchiefs, totaling 345 coins."

Li Hongmei, who was standing at the back, handed over her embroidery. The woman took one look and said straightforwardly, "Your embroidery is average. I can only give you 10 cents for a purse and 8 cents for a handkerchief."

"Okay. Let's add it to the previous one!" Su Hongmei knew her own craftsmanship and was very satisfied with the price, which was already higher than she expected.

The woman said while counting on an abacus: "Your 10 purses and 8 handkerchiefs are worth 164 wen in total. The total is 509 wen, so I'll give you 510 wen. What do you want to buy?"

When he first came in, Su An Dong looked around. This store has a wide range of items. On the left are ready-made clothes, on the right are all kinds of embroidery, and some small accessories.

Su An Dong thought for a moment and said, "I want to take over the embroidery, I wonder if it's possible."

The woman's name was Lan Niang. She did not shy away from the fact that he was a man. She was obviously used to doing business. Lan Niang took Zhao Yun's embroidered purse and said, "If it's this embroiderer, I have an embroidery job that's suitable for her."

"Of course it's this embroiderer. If her embroidery skills are not good enough, we wouldn't dare to accept it! May I ask what kind of embroidery work it is?"

"It's a decorative item. We provide the materials needed for the embroidery, as well as the embroidery samples. Because the materials are all of the best quality, a deposit of 5 taels of silver is required. After the embroidery is completed, if there is no problem with the embroidery, we will return the deposit and pay 10 taels of silver. But if it does not meet the requirements, is not well embroidered, or is damaged in any way, we will not return the deposit."

"Okay, we'll take the job, but I don't have enough money today. I'll come over tomorrow to get the materials and pay the deposit, is that ok?"

"can."

After the deal was settled, Su An Dong bought some more embroidery thread and cloth. This time he did not buy the inferior ones, but the medium ones. Moreover, he bought a lot, and spent all the money he earned from selling embroidery.

Several people on the side wanted to stop him, but Su Anton said, "I have my own plans." They all stopped talking obediently.
